Paroles de Bring down the witching hour

Pools of black eternitySweeping down on brightly burning firesWhen comes the righteous onesBringing the servants of leechy throngs

Angels, remembering every promiseBlack vise crushing the feathers whiteCome pain deliver us in darknessUnknown, the promise of their demise

Intercepting a worldDwelling in disbelief

Were able to exterminateYou down-to-earthlingsWith truth that would toss you into suicidal griefWhat renaissance this hour will bring

Dark grimoires of sorceriesFilled with spells of cursed conjurationsBring down the witching hourFrom earth to ashes we all shall fall

Those eyes, ebony enchantedPass on the undenying truthOf youth there isn't any leftWhat came from this insanity?

Bring on pain and sufferingThe answer for crimesPlead as much you canYou liar, you fucking liar

Pools of black eternitySweeping down on brightly burning firesBring down the witching hourFrom earth to ashes we all shall fall

Free men, shall come as the unwantedForcing the old ones to leave in vainAt last denial bringing justiceCruel fate, they are forever slain

(bring down the witching hour - comments)

(this lyric was done as a sort of homage to all the witches that died at the stakes in medieval europe. the lyric was done some time before narrenschiff joined the band, but it was a lyric that both he and i liked a lot so we decided to keep it as it was.the lyric is all about how the righteous people of the church killed all these women and the masses loved them for it. but now, today the witches are returning in great numbers and today we have no hallowed men to slay them for their knowledge. in the studio we found that it could do with a couple of lines and narrenschiff added the final touch, so it's basically a joint effort. the title itself is partly inspired by anne rice and her mayfair witches.)(- tobias)
